Eight Braselton citizens were recently recognized for having earned diplomas as graduates of the town’s ninth annual Citizens Academy. The academy, a six-month immersion series of meetings and activities, includes topics covering town management, finances, public safety, water and wastewater systems and more. Citizens Academy students travel the Braselton’s corporate limits via the town’s trolley.

“There’s much to learn about Braselton,” said town manager Jennifer Scott. “The academy is a popular way to learn, helping prepare our graduates for service on our advisory boards or just being better-informed citizens.”

Applications for Brasetlon’s 2020 Citizens Academy will be available in April.
